One of Benson's Cub Scout requirements was to visit a government building, so I thought it would be fun to take the kids up to the Utah State Capitol Building. I really only expected to walk around outside and take some pictures but we ended up going inside and it was so amazing. I didn't even know we were allowed inside but we got to see some really neat stuff! 
It is such a beautiful building and I love the blossoms in the spring!!

The capitol is up on a hill just above Temple Square and has some amazing views of the city.
Gotta love the giant marble lions
The House of Representatives

The "Gold Room" - used for dinners and receptions back in the day

Lots of neat murals in the rotunda
View of the domed ceiling
Always fun to see names of our pioneer ancestors :)
